I hadn't heard that Snopes was funded by Soros but I did know that they are biased lefties there.

They also got a break from Microsoft that FR never got. The hoaxed image of Kerry and Fonda was permitted by Corbis to remain on their site (I directed Corbis' legal team to the site; all that was done is that copyright notices were posted). There IS no copyright on the hoaxed image unless Corbis has taken 2 different photos and applied for a license on that image. I can see supressing the hoax, but not copyrighting it.

FR never even hosted the picture, it was always cited from a separate independent server.

The left protect their own. According to Snopes, they still won't call Hillary a liar over the "Sir Edmund Hillary" comment; their excuse is that maybe Hillary's mom lied to her.
